Just yesterday i noticed a very steady coolant drip coming from the left front drivers side off the bumper, the attached pics are the best i could take of the lines, with the bottom dripping worse than the top. My problem is that i am at school now without tools, so i guess my question is whether or not i can get away with just replacing some rubber or is a whole rad need to be dropped in, or just bring it to a shop...

Thanks,

troy

thanks for your help, the rad is perfectly functional and i wasnt sure if that mount was replaceable so if it is just the cooler line it shouldnt not be to bad.

Is the fluid that is leaking ,oil or coolant ??
Looks like coolant, if it is (as Sunlit said) you need to have a shop replace the whole tank on that side of Rad, or replace the whole rad

if the leak is between the tank and cooler mount as shown in pictures, that is coolant. oil can only leak from the line or line fitting.

The tank ends from dealer go for about $78 each plus labor but a new Delphi complete radiator can be had from amazon for $180. They are the oem supplier.
